purchase [ The Who By Numbers]
When I purchased my own first "stereo" back in '71, the merchant included a copy of "Who's Next" in the deal. I have mentioned this before here. Andy La RayGun has also brought it to our attention
Always a fan of the Who/Pete Townsend, I have tried to keep up as he has done side gigs, the NFL Superbowl (however difficult with the group at that age) and more.
The album <The Who By Numbers> includes this piece that might fit the current theme: Squeeze Box.
Ostensibly, a squeeze box is an accordion: you know, the player pulls and pushes/squeezes the box to produce the musical sounds. That doesn't appears to be the actual subject of the song:
Mama's got a squeeze box she wears on her chest
.. [daddy] never gets no rest
Yes, the accordion usually rests on the players chest. But more:
She goes in and out and in and out ... [Hmm...meaning what?]
... Come on and squeeze me ...come on and tease me ... [Hmm.. tease the accordion?]
The album studio version is a lot better:
Sheryl Crow does it too
